| Roadside verge parking SSW of top at start of a short section of mapped track (NJ 3703 1643). Straight up from there. | jonglew | 25/12/2021 |
| Easy wander from W, 2 summits 60m apart, nice pinewood | RHW | 25/12/2021 |
| 4 of 4: After returning to the car at 375171 from White Hill. Along the track to the newer gate. Up to a gap in the BWF at 37237 16951. Then up through the woods. 2nd of 2 possible spots seemed the higher. With Karen. | ChrisR | 24/11/2021 |
| Ascended hill from near Mill of Glenbuchat | 187lenny | 23/05/2021 |
| Parked at tin shed and up thru trees. Returned more directly to road and noticed a slightly better parking place at a wide track entrance a little further up the glen. | govanah | 17/12/2020 |
| 'Rabbit Hill' from minor road to west up a carpet of lovely soft short rabbit grazed grass -full of burrows. To compete the idyllic scene Bambi and friends wandered through the scots pines. Empty shot gun cartridges hinted that some of the rabbits had ended up in the pot. | Chris Pearson | 07/10/2020 |
| Short circuit from track to SW. | Smudge | 29/12/2019 |
| Parked by tin shed (bit tight). Windthrow between there and the top has now been mostly cleared by harvesters. Top is distinct enough, another top to the NW is lower. | Dave McG | 26/09/2018 |
| Ascended after Creag an Eunan and Creag an Sgor. A windy day and already much windblown in the wood. Parked close to red tin shed on the south side, but forced to ascend from the east due to the windblown. With the trees groaning in the wind, it was a quick ascent and descent. | JohnW | 11/04/2017 |
